System Logs Configuration
The system can be configured to send debug and error messages to a
logging process. This logging process controls the type of error messages
that are stored in switch memory or sent to a remote syslog server.
The system allows you to specify which levels are logged to RAM or flash
memory.
Severe error messages that are logged to flash memory are permanently
stored in the switch to assist in troubleshooting network problems. Up to
4096 log entries can be stored in the flash memory, with the oldest entries
being overwritten first when the available log memory (256 kilobytes) has
been exceeded.
Logs
The Logs page allows you to scroll through the logged system and event
messages. The switch can store up to 2048 log entries in temporary
random access memory (RAM; i.e., memory flushed on power reset) and
up to 4096 entries in permanent flash memory.

System Logs
The System Logs page allows you to configure and limit system messages
that are logged to flash or RAM memory. The default is for levels 0 to 3 to
be logged to flash and levels 0 to 7 to be logged to RAM.
